Table 1: The characteristics of the selected pulsars taken from Manchester et al. (2005). Period, P, distance, D, spin-down age, spin-down luminosity, $\dot{E}$ , and the corresponding value for $\dot{E}/D^2$ , and calculated magnetic field strength at the neutron star surface, $B_{\rm surf}$ , and the light cylinder, $B_{\rm LC}$ , are listed. The last column shows the rank in $\dot{E}/D^2$ within the ATNF catalogue.
Table 2: Selection cuts used for the analysis of air shower events. The image amplitude (Size) is given in photo-electrons (p.e.), $E_{\rm max}$ corresponds to the maximum reconstructed event energy, MRSW and MRSL represent the mean scaled reduced width and length parameters, and $\theta ^2_{\rm cut}$ is the maximum squared angular distance with respect to the target position. The tail cuts represent the image cleaning thresholds applied. For details see Aharonian et al. (2006c).
Table 3: Pulsar ephemerides. The first and last reference times (t₀) of the timing solutions used in this analysis are given. For a complete list of the solutions and the corresponding pulsar parameters see the references: 1: Lyne et al. (2005), 2: Manchester et al. (2005), 3: Camilo et al. (2002).
Table 4: Pulse phase regions used in the on-off-pulse method. Given are the phase intervals considered as on phase together with the energy band and the corresponding reference.

Table 5: Results of the analysis of unpulsed $\gamma$ -ray emission for each pulsar data set using the standard cuts and assuming a point source at the pulsar position. Dead-time corrected observation time, $t_{\rm obs}$ , mean offset of the pulsar direction with respect to the array pointing direction, $\langle\theta_{\rm off}\rangle$ , approximate mean energy threshold, $\langle E_{\rm thresh}\rangle$ , number of excess counts, $N_{\rm excess}$ , and corresponding significance, S, are given. In addition to the mean threshold for the standard cuts, the corresponding threshold for the low energy cuts is given in parentheses if applicable. If the pulsar is in the vicinity (angular distance <1 $^\circ$ ) of, or associated with, a known VHE $\gamma$ -ray source, the source name is given along with the corresponding reference. Note that the given numbers can significantly differ from the published results for the known sources which are located at different positions and might be extended. References: A: Aharonian et al.

Table 6: Results of statistical tests for pulsed emission. Number of events, $N_{\rm on}$ , $\chi ^2$ probability for a fit of the phase distribution to a constant, and probabilities for the event series being compatible with a flat phase distribution for the H-, Z²₁-, Z²₂-, and Kuiper-test (P_K) are shown. All quantities are given for both the low energy and standard cut analyses (see text).
